Two cis-regulatory SNPs upstream of ABCG2 synergistically cause the blue eggshell phenotype in the duck
Avian eggshell color is an interesting genetic trait. Here, we report that the blue eggshell color of the domestic duck is caused by two cis-regulatory G to A transitions upstream of ABCG2, which encodes an efflux transporter. The juxtaposed blue eggshell allele A-A exhibited higher promoter activit...
